Editing Multiple Chapter Fics  
Hey Best Bar!

A while back I got some really great advice on how overcome the over-editing monster. I have a follow up question to that point. When do you guys edit multiple chapter fics? At the end of each chapter or at the very end of the story? I took a leap and entered into this years Marvelbigbang. I'm doing pretty good at not editing while actively writing. But I'm close to being finished with chapter one hence the question. Personally I feel that if I wait until the end of the novella I'll be too far removed from chapter one. Anyway, I'm curious to hear your thoughts.

Thanks all!

I've never attempted to write out of order. But I can see where that would be helpful. A lot of times a story I have running through my head revolves around some key scenes but I never end up writing them because they are in the middle and I lose inspiration before I ever get there. So I might give that a try.

I think as far as editing goes, I'm going to try some minor editing at the end of the chapter but leave the major stuff for the end.

Thanks for the advice!
